Measurements at APS What do they tell us?
Cerenkov Detector (CD) loss monitors in the APS SR • Distributed around the SR, ~1 per sector • Generally on the outboard side ~10 cm from the beam centerline • Small fused-silica, cylindrical radiators (8-mm OD, 8-mm length), V=0.4 cc • Close-coupled to small PMT
CD Loss Signals during Top-Up--with large signals the amplitude saturatesbut the width keeps growing
